Let’s Knit – this is quite similar to Simply Knitting – a good all-rounder, nice and light. There is also an Alan Dart toy pattern in each issue. Simply Knitting – I like the modern, easy patterns. Knit Simple – US magazine out every 2 months – my favourite knitting mag – I love the modern vibe and unusual patterns, but I can find it a bit tricky finding good yarn substitutes for the US patterns Knitting magazines seem to multiply – every few months I notice a new one! If you were to buy all the issues, it would work out as the most expensive blanket in history! 🙂 But I learned to crochet with this magazine – the free DVD with the first issue is excellent and finally made crochet click for me after several failed attempts. The Art of Crochet – partwork magazine – this magazine series recently started again, it’s out every few years and you get free yarn with each issue to work towards making a blanket. There is a good value digital only subscription available too for $16 a year with access to 2 years of back issues. You can download a free iPad app where you can preview each issue in full, get a free back issue and buy further issues.Ĭrochet World – US magazine out every 2 months – a bit more old fashioned, but there can be some good patterns. Inside Crochet – UK monthly magazine, recently changed owners, hopefully it will continueĬrochet Today – US magazine out every 2 months – my personal favourite, with the same modern, relaxed vibe as Knit Simple. This is Knit, Powerscourt Shopping Centre have some knitting and crochet magazines upstairs along with some nice couches 🙂 Crochet magazinesĬrochet is the poor relation when it comes to craft magazines, but there are a few dedicated titles: The craft titles are at the front of the shop. Reads – Nassau Street, owned by Easons, so you can use Eason vouchers there.īus Stop Newsagents, Frascati Shopping Centre Blackrock – this shop stocks way more magazines than at first glance – so many that they are all overlapping each other so you can just see the very left of the cover sometimes. Here are some shops in Dublin that have a good selection:Įasons – O’Connell Street, Dundrum Shopping Centre & Dun Laoghaire branches have a great selection, and I presume other larger branches do too. Despite the huge variety of craft magazines available, many newsagents don’t stock them unfortunately. At a cost of 7-9 euro each, this can easily become an expensive habit! Luckily I often have gift vouchers so I can get my fix without feeling guilty.
